Working women are challenged by work and family commitments on each day in all the careers. Women working through-out the week are struggling to balance their family and work commitments. When a woman is able to manage her personal and professional life she becomes more committed to her office work. As a result, she is able to achieve success in her career. Further, it will also help her in leading a healthy and peaceful life. Nurses play the major role in health care and thus it is necessary that their needs have to be taken care and a congenial atmosphere is to be created to work with utmost satisfaction. Therefore, the concept of Work-Life Balance along with its implications is a core issue that must be investigated. Married Female nurses struggle with highly demanding familial, personal and societal duties to be performed in their day-to-day life. Any imbalance in their life causes job and family stress leading to health related problems. In order to understand the work-life balance challenges and the various conflict factors influencing the work-life balance, the present study has been proposed to be undertaken. A sample of 200 married female nurses working in Private and Government Hospitals in Erode District were selected and a structured questionnaire was used to collect the information from the respondents. A factorial model has been applied to identify the major work-life conflict factors by KMO Bartlett’s Validity test and the Correlation Matrix. The Principal Component Analysis method was also applied to extract the major factors by Varimax rotation. The variables identified are the vital factors which can be concentrated on more by the female nurses in order to avoid work-life conflicts to ensure a balanced life.Keywords
